Geli Press Paris and Carnival!

Experimenting with the Gel Press and acrylic paints! Love the wonderful backgrounds they created.

Just two colors of acrylic paints and here are the results I got.

On a couple of them I placed circles punched and placed on the plate after painting. The paint lifted, then I ran the brayer again and got a really cool effect.

This sheet has a bit of punchinella used for texture! The prints were left to dry!

Using the Circle Background Stamp with black ink on an acrylic block. Black embossing powder was used on the ink.

After heating the embossing powder, punchinella and black ink was used to add another layer to the opposite side of the sheet.

Adhere a black Bazzill Edge just off center of the card with glue. Use ONE of a KIND Jolee's Stickers to embellish the card.... this would make a cute birthday card!

Using the Diamond Background Stamp with black ink on an acrylic block. Black embossing powder was used on the ink.

Adhere a black Bazzill Edge just off center of the card with double-sided tape. Use a mica tile to stamp the Muse Eiffel Tower and heat emboss with black embossing powder. Then stamp Paris. Adhere mica tile to the card with double-sided tape. Add flowers!!!

Finally, add one of the circles used to lift paint from the Gel plate when painting to create the moon in the background!

Hope this inspires you to use your GEL PRESS!!!

Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages. I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent! Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar. Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them. Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA! You have made your own solvent for literally pennies. You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a HUGE jar on the window sill! Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.

Full Circle

Hi all! Becky here today! I have been in a circle-mood lately & have been doing circles on everything! So why not do some circles with some of my Gelli Prints??? Here's a simple little card I made using 4 different circle punches, a black pen & some previously made Gelli prints! Hope you're enjoying Springtime in your area! Cheers!
